Innovating a Better Future.

Anywhere we go in the world we notice that Intellectual Property (IP) is all around us. Intellectual Property is the result of innovation, new products and new technologies that are protected so that they can thrive in the marketplace.

Therefore, every year on 26th of April we celebrate the World Intellectual Property Day to raise awareness of how patents, copyright, trademarks and designs impact on daily life and to celebrate creativity, and the contribution made by creators and innovators to the development of societies across the globe.

Innovation and technology move fast. Not so long ago there was a concept of the traditional servers. The traditional server concept included the whole unit such as hardware, OS, storage, and applications. Organizations across the globe realized that every minute their server spent offline was a minute of lost productivity. And so to meet the growing needs of the customers they adapted a new technology that we call– Cloud Computing.

As each generation of technology improves over the last, the rate of progress from version to version speeds up. One such example is the Blockchain Technology which is a step ahead of the traditional distributed ledgers or distributed file systems.

Blockchain Technology cuts down on operational inefficiencies (which ultimately saves money). Greater security is also provided due to their decentralized nature. Data stored in a blockchain is immutable, irrevocable, and cryptographically signed and so everyone knows who the owner and originator of all data is, and all data can be confirmed as to its source and authenticity. This increases trust in the reliability of the data.

Enterprises across various sectors of the industry are warming up to the concept of the decentralized ledger. Blockchain adoption among companies and businesses to address fundamental business problems is a priority. In fact, the adoption of Blockchain technology is occurring at such a rapid scale that Gartner predicts the business value of Blockchain tech will exceed $3 trillion by 2030 and Jobs in this field are growing at a rate of 2000–6000 percent every year!

And now you too can gain hands-on experience with distributed ledger and the exploration of blockchain datasets in Google Cloud!
